Jaitley won't name traitors, he is bluffing: Congress on black money issue

New Delhi: Congress on Wednesday reacted sharply to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s remarks that the Opposition party will be embarrassed once names of people holding illicit foreign accounts are made public, daring him to “name the traitor”. [caption id=“attachment_1768679” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had said that Congress would be embarrassed if names related to black money accounts were revealed.

What is stopping Jaitley ji from naming the traitors?” Youth Congress President Rajeev Satav said on Twitter.

AICC general secretary Digvijaya Singh tweeted “FM instead of bluffing people should tell us when he is depositing 3 L (lakh) in a/c of every citizen as promised by Modi in his campaign speeches.”

Congress had attacked Narendra Modi during the Lok Sabha campaign on social media under the hashtag ‘Feku’. The issue of blackmoney has led to a war of words between the ruling BJP and Congress. The government recently told the Supreme Court that it cannot disclose the names of Swiss bank account holders, a stand the UPA had taken earlier. As Congress accused the BJP government of “practising “hypocrisy” on the issue, Jaitely on Tuesday said, “The names (of black money account holders) will be public shortly… I can assure you there is no embarrassment I (BJP) will have when all the names are disclosed. There is some embarrassment the Congress party will have because of those names”. PTI
